Layering help

CaptainVindicus · 2018-10-09T06:36:04+0900

I am a complete noob at RPG Maker XV Ace and I've been spending forever on figuring out how to layer, theres no tutorials showing how to layer. I want to have, for example, a grass field, and a roof over the grass field, but when I try to put the grass under the roof, the grass either just goes over the roof or the grass is replaced by the blue transparent block things. VX Ace has made layering so much harder and its so confusing? Any help?

Check out the links in my signature block.

I believe you want to do a shift right click for your mapping. But without images I can't see what is happening.

What does your tileset look like?
Normally you start with the bottom layer (grass), then add on the house. Should not be a problem unless you made a tilset and put it all in the wrong spot. Tiles a1-a5 are for bottom layers, they would replace each other when placed on the map. then you add on the other tiles B-E
